ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (Continued)
In addition to the Fairpark Apartments, Villa Piedra Apartments, Timbers
Apartments and Lexington Center purchased discussed above, the Company has
purchased seven apartment complexes, one in El Paso, Texas in March 1997, one in
Houston, Texas also in March 1997, one in Irving, Texas in May 1997, one in
Sterling, Virginia also in May 1997, one in Fort Worth, Texas in September 1997,
one in Mesa, Arizona in October 1997 and one in Odessa, Texas also in October
1997. The Company has also purchased two office buildings, one in Houston, Texas
in March 1997 and the other in Bonita, California in September 1997, and one
warehouse facility in Fort Worth, Texas in October 1997. These properties were
purchased for a total of $45.0 million and in the aggregate represent in excess
of 10% of the Company's assets at December 31, 1996. The Company paid a total of
$15.1 million in cash and financed the remainder of the purchase prices. The
mortgages secured by these properties bear interest at fixed and variable rates
ranging from 8.07% to 10.5% per annum and mature from June 1998 to October 2007.
In assessing each property purchase described above, the following were among
the factors considered by the Company's management, geographic location of the
property, performance of the property, new or renovated properties in the
vicinity of the property and the maintenance and appearance of the property.
Additional factors considered with respect to commercial properties were the
ease of access to the property, the adequacy of related facilities, such as
parking, and the property's sensitivity to market conditions in establishing
rental rates. With respect to apartment complexes the design and mix of units
and the ability to provide a community atmosphere for the tenants was also
considered.
In 1997, the Company also sold two retail centers, one in February 1997 and one
in November 1997, a parcel of land in February 1997, a single family dwelling in
April 1997 and an office building in December 1997. In connection with these
sales, the Company received net cash totaling $27.7 million.
These Pro Forma Statements of Operations present the Company's operations as if
the transactions described above, had occurred at the beginning of each of the
periods presented. The Company's management is not aware of any material factors
relating to the purchased properties that would cause the reported financial
information not be necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Trustees
Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and direct operating
expenses of The Timbers Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1997. This
statement of revenues and direct operating expenses is the responsibility of the
Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
statement of revenues and direct operating expenses based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses
is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues and
direct operating expenses. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall statement of revenues and direct operating expenses
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
The accompanying financial statement is prepared for the purpose of complying
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses referred
to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and direct
operating expenses of The Timbers Apartments for the year ended December 31,
